Postwar Baseball - 1950s Cards

Graded VG-EX 4 by PSA (submitted by REA). Extremely attractive high-grade example of Roy McMillan from the 1955 Kahn's set, the first and rarest set issued by the popular food manufacturer. This set, which features six members of the Cincinnati Redlegs team, was available at a Cincinnati amusement park for only one day. Cards from this set are considerably rarer than those from any of the other Kahn's sets, which were issued annually for fifteen years through 1969. Only forty-four examples of any player have been graded by PSA and SGC combined. This example is bright and crisp, with four strong corners, and a clean reverse. Downgraded from Near Mint due to a light surface indentation visible in the grayish background. This is a very attractive high-grade example from one of the 1950s' most legendary rare regional sets. Reserve $200. Estimate (open).
